THIS IS A SECRET THAT HAS BEEN HIDDEN BY YEARS, SOMEBODY MUST HAVE EVER TRIED IT, BUT HERE I AM SHOWING IT YOU SHAKING IN YOUR BOOTS ALREADY? WELL HERE'S COMES A REAL DOOZY THAT YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE! IF YOU CLIP THROUGH A BRICK AND GO TO THE LEFT PIPE OF THE WARP ZONE, YOU CAN ACTUALLY WARP TO WORLD -1! AIN'T THAT JUST SO COOL?

Yes, people use the "things you didn't know" title way too often. I once watched a " 100 things you didn't know video about mario kart" video and apparently one of the 'things I didn't know' was that mario kart 64 wasn't the 64th mario kart game.

By the way, the tenth thing was actually discovered by Marionaire in 2008, and it was used in some of his TASes. However, he got terminated and it wasn't until AndrewG dug up several archived videos of him when we were able to discover this trick. Also, Mastermind explained this glitch in one of his recordings of Marionaire's TAS videos.

In Super Mario Bros. 1, he is Fake Bowser. In Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2's original instruction manual, the bluish Bowser-looking enemy that's found before the real one in the later castles is his brother. It's possible the other castles have either fake Bowsers or Bowser's brother, I don't remember which, but it's the one with the distinctive blue hue that's his brother specifically.

Neat. I knew a bunch of these, but a bunch were new to me. My favorite trivia I learned just a few months ago was there’s an invisible object on 1-2 that sets a flag to lock the screen scroll so you cannot see the warp zone. It’s supposed to unlock only if your are up in the hud but the code that controls the screen lock itself is broken.

Great video!! here is one more. Repeating 4-2 warp zone. As big Mario, on the 4-2 warp zone, you run, duck and slide under the first mushroom platform, then stand up, slide to the right, then run, duck and slide under the 2nd mushroom platform, stand up and continue sliding. So now you are close enough to the right edge to not trigger 6, 7, or 8 over the pipes. Go down any pipe and end up at the beginning of the 4-2 warp zone. Would have been nice if it actually took you to World -2.

Number 10 was shocking, the bouncing in the 1-block gap reminds me of the loud noise it made in version 1.0 of SMB35.
